Football Grounds of Herefordshire and Worcestershire (hardback edition)
£24.95 inc. tax
A hardback edition, limited to just fifty copies offered for sale. Last few remaining.
The last book in my series covering grounds within counties, this time covering Herefordshire and Worcestershire. Three authors of previous books have combined to put this book together, covering the neighbouring counties of Herefordshire and Worcestershire. Two towns have hosted League football and the old St. George’s Lane ground was arguably even more suited had Worcester City got to that level.
The book covers the full range of grounds from stadia to open fields and recreation grounds, with surprises and delights such as Bewdley, Hinton and Broadway to be discovered. Grounds are often set in
stunning scenery and the excellent photography shows each ground at its very best.
Historic stands and lost grounds are included with a remarkable survivor now in use as a barn.
82 clubs, 68 current grounds, 296 images, and 18 maps in 132 full colour pages.
I have been publishing books on football grounds, as seen in the final image, since 1995, the 30th anniversary book already under way. It will be offered only to buyers of previous books through the newsletter which can be most easily found at the bottom of the home page, and other pages too I understand. Details to follow!
The books cover all aspects of the subject including historical archive material, such as Football Grounds of the Early 1900s, presented as Visual History and including maps and historic images. Other books document fully the grounds found in certain counties, from the largest to smallest, stadia to village greens. Then there are the arty books, the ones where the image is more than just a photo of a ground or stand. The books on floodlights are the only two published, while Grounds Frenzy and Football Grounds Frenzy Wales highlight the beauty within a ground or in the backdrop, the hills or terraces of houses.
More books will follow, sign up for the newsletter to be kept up to date.
